A day after the Congress declared its candidate for Madhya Pradesh’s Amla seat for the upcoming Assembly polls, the State Government on October 24 accepted the resignation of Deputy Collector Nisha Bangre, who was earlier expected to enter the poll fray from Amla on a Congress ticket.
In an order dated October 23, the General Administration Department, M.P. Government, also ended the departmental proceedings against Ms. Bangre, 32, that had been started after she allegedly defied a government order denying her permission to attend an all-religion prayer for the inauguration of her new home in Amla of Betel district.
The moves comes after the Madhya Pradesh High Court, hearing a plea by Ms. Bangre on the delay in accepting her resignation, on Friday had directed the government to decide on Ms. Bangre’s resignation and conclude the proceedings against her by Monday.
